Probably make it predictable for tools trying to consume the file.

| Shouldn't dak reject debs with duplicate filenames in the first place?

No, packages might very well ship duplicate files (think all mtas
shipping /usr/sbin/sendmail) but they then have to conflict + replace.

Yeah, I should probably stop shipping the latin1 version, now, though.
